The Turnaround for Children Toolbox: Science and Equity-Driven Tools for Whole-Child School Redesign
|
The Turnaround for Children Toolbox was designed to empower educators – teachers, school and district leaders, student support staff, and more – to drive change towards a more equitable, whole-child approach to school. The Toolbox is grounded in the science of learning and development, which synthesizes research across diverse fields including neuroscience, psychology, developmental science, adversity science and more. The Toolbox offers educators tools to begin the process of confronting, dismantling and reimagining the systems, structures, practices and mindsets that uphold the inequities in our current education system. |

Million Girls Moonshot Free Toolkit |
The Engineering Mindset Toolkit is a collection of resources and tools for all 50 Mott Afterschool States Networks and their partners to access and utilize for the Million Girls Moonshot Initiative.
The resources in the Engineering Mindset Toolkit are not exhaustive. We will continue to add and modify the resources as the Initiative evolves and depending upon the needs of the Networks.
The Million Girls Moonshot focuses on the Engineering Mindset which we believe compliments the STEM mindset, as well as innovation, invention, and entrepreneurial education.
